Síndrome de descompresión

The video explains hydrostatic pressure, which increases with depth and affects divers by compressing their bodies. Divers must balance internal and external pressures to avoid being crushed. Rapid ascent can cause decompression syndrome due to nitrogen bubbles forming in the bloodstream, leading to severe health issues. Atmospheric pressure also plays a role in decompression, and divers must ascend carefully to avoid complications. Hyperbaric chambers are used to treat decompression by controlling pressure and dissolving nitrogen bubbles.

What precautions should divers take to avoid nitrogen bubbles forming in their bloodstream?
